Afterword Tavern & Shelves

The perfect bar for book lovers. If you aren’t a reader, I’m sure you’ll enjoy their uniquely crafted cocktails. The charm is undeniable.

Amazing place. Amazing drinks, amazing books, amazing space. Super friendly folks at the bar.

I visited for the first time this past Saturday for an author event. I accidentally showed up early and was super embarrassed, but the staff was super friendly! They encouraged me to stay and hang out until event time and offered to get me a drink despite not technically being open. The latte was amazingly delicious, so I decided to take a lunch to go after the event. I'm a sucker for a good grilled cheese and tomato soup. The grilled cheese was made with 2 different kinds of cheese on a panini press! It was delicious! I'm giving this place 5 stars across the board. I will definitely be back and will be bringing friends! <3

One of my favorite cocktail bars in town. Very cozy atmosphere with friendly and very professional bartenders that get your drinks to you quick, even when it’s busy. Great book selection, fun to look through them when you’re tipsy. Every drink I’ve had here is delicious! The menu changes every so often though so it’s a little different every time. Please bring back that Tropic of Capricorn drink 🙏

I didn't eat here, so I can't comment. But the drinks were great and the arboretum was great humor also.

The atmosphere is that of a coffee shop or cafe, and the cocktails are subtle, brilliant, and delicious. I had the All Night Sun (with tequila) and the Heat Around the Corner. Both of which are exceptional and drinkable cocktails anyone would enjoy. Huzzah!
